Researchers make breakthrough in turning sugar cane to aircraft fuel
Jan 17, 2023 · Queensland researchers say making sustainable fuels, cosmetics, solvents, and paints in Australia is a step closer after a breakthrough that allows them to quickly convert sugar cane into a renewable chemical.
Turning sugar cane waste into biojet fuel: how a biorefinery is ...
Sugarcane uses carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through photosynthesis so it can grow. When the fuel made at the biorefinery is burned in an engine, it releases less carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere than it took to make it, which makes the fuel officially carbon negative.

Researchers Have Worked Out How to Make Jet Diesel From Sugarcane
Jun 11, 2015 · A team of researchers from the University of California, Berkeley in the US have come across a novel alternative fuel: sugarcane biomass and waste. The academics say that producing jet diesel from this natural source would substantially reduce …
Speeding up sugar's conversion into fuel - UQ News
University of Queensland researchers have found a way to more efficiently convert sugarcane into a building block of aviation fuel and other products. By zeroing in on a specific enzyme, a UQ team working in collaboration with the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has sped up the slowest step in processing sugar into a chemical called ...
Ethanol - SugarCane
Sugarcane ethanol is an alcohol-based fuel produced by the fermentation of sugarcane juice and molasses. Because it is a clean, affordable and low-carbon biofuel, sugarcane ethanol has emerged as a leading renewable fuel for the transportation sector.
